Abstract

This is a review of 52 osteosarcomas of the foot. The incidence of osteosarcoma of the foot is very low. It appears to affect older patients and the calcaneus is a common site. The incidence of chondroblastic tumors is high and most tumors are high grade. In many cases, amputation is required for local control of disease.
